Middlesex named one of world’s most international universities

Middlesex University has been named among the world's most international universities in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2015-2016.

The
annual study placed the London institution 109 in the world and 43 in
the UK for 'global outlook'.

"An
institution's global outlook is one of the key markers of a prestigious
university," said Phil Baty from the Times Higher Education – the
UK university sector's newspaper. "It is great news for all the
institutions in the list of the most international universities in the world.
It is a sign of great potential, competitiveness and dynamism."

To
compile its World University Rankings, the Times Higher Education scores
universities around the globe on a number of key indicators, with the top 800
making it on to the overall list. The 'international outlook' indicator, which
was used to create a list of the top 200 most international universities,
assesses universities for the proportion of international staff and students as
well as the proportion of research papers published with at least one co-author
from another country.

Professor
Judith Lamie, Deputy Vice-Chancellor, International, at Middlesex University,
said: "The University's ranking reflects the global nature and ethos of
Middlesex University. "With institutions on three continents – and
students hailing from more than 140 countries – we offer outstanding teaching,
learning and research that know no geographical or academic borders. We are
proud to be recognised as a university with a big global network of students
and staff and an international outlook informs everything we do, allowing us to
make a far-reaching and enduring contribution to the world around us."
